Verified!

Justin Wozniak:

Ah, it does but it proceeds past the check only to fail confusingly later-

...
checking for ranlib... ranlib
checking for pkg-config... no
checking for mpicc option to accept ISO C99... none needed
checking how to run the C preprocessor... mpicc -E
...
checking for ROSS... no

Strange, I thought the autoconf macro checked for it - in either case, it's a trivial fix so I'll go ahead and patch it.

Jonathan Jenkins:

Just pushed the check, can you verify the correct behavior?

nmcglo commented 8 years ago

Jonathan Jenkins:

Yes, we check through the macro PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG, so we just need to check the PKG_CONFIG variable after that.
